Digitally Remastered ‘Pokémon: The First Movie’ to Air

The very first Pokémon is set to air in North America on Cartoon Network on January 4th at 8:30 am (confirm with your local listings). The movie has been digitally remastered and should be a real treat for older fans of the series who may have seen the movie when they were younger.

Movie Synopsis

Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket, had ambitious plans to take over the world, involving his latest experiment, a powerful clone of Mew—Mewtwo. Mewtwo is very powerful, and also very smart—smart enough to not want to be controlled by Giovanni. It escaped from the lab, and now Mewtwo begins to concoct its own scheme, clandestinely inviting a number of Pokémon Trainers to the ultimate test. Of course, if it’s an event for talented Trainers, Ash Ketchum will be right in the front row!

Ash’s excitement turns to fear and anger when Mewtwo reveals its plan for domination, creating powerful clones of all of the kids’ Pokémon so it can even the “imbalance” between Pokémon and their Trainers. Despite Ash’s protests, Mewtwo refuses to believe that Pokémon and people can be friends. But faced with the determination of a young Trainer and the love of his Pokémon, Mewtwo just might have to reconsider, especially when pitted against the power of the mysterious Mew! — Official Site

Enjoy!

    • Hearing Mewtwo talk about clones so much is why I traded my shiny mew for a shiny ponyta.

      I was over at Serebii’s chat and literally 80% of the chatroom has the same shiny mew that I used to have. I asked around and found atleast 17 people with the same “calm” natured shiny japanese mew, so I came to conclusion that it was massively cloned and spread around. Yep definitely had to go. I don’t deal with mass-cloned pokes. This is exactly why I stick to my own trainer id/pokes etc. But its gone now 🙁 was good while it lasted. Hope to transfer my own over from bank soon.

  2. I didn’t get a solution yesterday so I’ll ask again. My little brother wants to join PJ. I don’t wanna turn him down (mainly cuz he’ll never stop bugging me). But when someone can or cant find a shiny, there is the occasional curse here. And some links and pictures. What do I do?

    • Yep…we both had a bit of hax (i think you missing Sleep Powder actually won it for me, considering the work Scizor put in at the end), and I love the volt-turn combination.
      That was nice defensive core by the way…absolute pain to take down
